Exploring creative theories that bring constitutional doctrines to life in order to protect highly vulnerable immigrant children has served as a powerful reminder that our Constitution is an organism that lives, breathes—and, most importantly, grows—within in our legal ecosystems. Although immigrant communities remain grossly under-protected under our Constitution, this legal research has only redoubled my commitment to advocating for new ways for constitutional principles to live and grow within the lattice of our immigration laws. In all, I have continued to develop my advocacy toolkit at Public Counsel, and remain ever-impassioned by the work. Thank you, Equal Justice America, for making this summer opportunity possible with the EJA Fellowship.
